Paying For That Backstreet Affair |
Yes, I thought that you were true when I fell in love with you |
For you told me you always would play square |
Then I learned you had a home, that your wife had not gone wrong |
And our love was just a backstreet affair |
Was too late to say no when I found you’d fooled me so |
For as time passed on I’d learned too much to care |
Though I knew I must atone, but my will was not my own |
I’m paying for that backstreet affair |
You didn’t count the cost, you gambled and I lost |
Now I must pay with hours of deep despair |
You still can live your life with a true, forgiving wife |
But I can’t live down our backstreet affair |
The love I gave so free is left to torture me |
Though I know it’s hopeless and it isn’t fair |
But, still I must go on while the gossips spread are wrong |
I’m paying for that backstreet affair |
